Oven Fried Chicken

I know, I know -- I've been on a chicken roll lately. But this is some really good stuff, and easy to freeze -- lighter on the calories than regular fried chicken, too --

CRISPY COUNTRY CHICKEN


About 1 cup Miracle Whip salad dressing

1 zipper-top bag full of crushed cornflakes

1/2 cup parmesan cheese

salt and pepper to taste

chicken pieces, enough for your family


Add the parmesan cheese, salt and pepper to the cornflakes so everything is in the zipper-top bag.

Take your chicken pieces, and brush with Miracle Whip. Use your hands or a clean paintbrush.

Drop the "painted" piece of chicken into the bag of cornflake mixture and coat.


Place coated chicken pieces into a 13" x 9" baking dish, or on a cookie sheet.


Bake at 350 degrees until golden brown, about 45-60 minutes.


Jen's notes:


1. I usually use boneless chicken breast or breast tenders for this recipe, since I always have them on hand.


2. You can roll your pieces in a bowl of the cornflake mix if that's easier for you.


3. Mayonnaise also works for this recipe. It makes the chicken very juicy inside.


4. Feel free to add other seasonings to the cornflake mixture as you like --


rating: 4 stars. Everybody likes this unless we've had nothing but chicken all week.
